If the Jazz lose this one they are probably out of the play-in picture, so they better bring it.

I have lost any faith. They simply suck.
This a team with a lot of holes (made by our Front office), so we cannot expect wins. Maybe vs teams like Hornets, Wizards or Spurs, but no more.

Sexton getting the calls early on...... 6 free throws already in the first 6 minutes.......

Oi. Not Lauri's game tonight. If he was shooting anywhere near normal, we'd be in this game.

Ouch, that turnover at the end by Collins was killer. Couldn’t ask for a better look for Collin at the end.

Well at least the Jazz put up a strong fight and were in it at the end. But I can't help but think that the previous roster would have won at least one of these last three games.

I should have never mentioned that Klay Thompson admitted he isn't a star anymore. The reverse jinx got me again. Klay came off the bench to have his highest scoring game of the season, 35 pts on 76.5 TS%. He had a big game against us Monday as well: 26 pts on 66.9 TS%.

1.Fun but frustrating game. Both teams hit a lot of shots but man, it is frustrating to see the Jazz get lit up and unable to stop anybody.

2. I feel bad for Collins who seem to really take that errant pass hard but he didn't cost the Jazz the game. What cost them the game was giving up 80+ in the first half and once again fall behind by about 19, as they do almost regularly. That pass was bad even if it were on target because Collins threw it really hard but Sexton still had a chance at the end with a great look. So cheer up John, the loss is not on you.

3. Sexton and George were really great. This was the first game from George where I watched him and said to myself 'alright, I get it now.' It looks like his starting stint this time (he'll start for the rest of the season according to Hardy) will go better.

4. I thought Sexton was excellent - he ran to offense well and made great passes and didn't force things. And watching him encourage Collins after that pass all throughout the Warriors' free throws as awesome. No idea what he said but just by body language you could tell what he was doing. I think he's become my favorite Jazz player, I just freakin' love watching him play.

5. Tough game for Markkanen, it was once of those games where nothing went his way. If he had even a regular 'weak' shooting night the Jazz win by 10.

6. Sucks that this stretch pretty much took the Jazz out of the play-in, unless something unexpected happens. Sigh.
